My, aren't we the sensitive one. You obviously haven't read many of my comments on stories or you wouldn't be so snide. To illustrate the senseless thought processes that peple have about protected areas, I give you this story. There is a small village in extreme nortnwest lower Michigan named Cross Village. To get there, you take M-119 north from Harbor Springs through what is known as the Tunnel of Trees (youtube it) until you reach Cross Village. There is a beach at Cross Village. There is a sign on the beach. It proclaims the beach a protected area because it is a sensative nesting area for the Piping Plover. The money-shot of the story is the sign also states that there hasn't been a Piping Plover seen in the entire area since 1938. That's IT.
